Probably. One sentence? Maybe. One word? Unlikely. How about a sermon as short as a single letter-in fact the smallest letter of the alphabet? Yes, you can imagine that, if you know the preacher. It was Jesus. From his cross Jesus shouts the &nbsp;same one-letter sermon twice. Look at the Hebrew word Eli in Jesus&#8217; quotation from David&#8217;s psalm in Matthew&#8217;s gospel. The &#8220;i&#8221; in Eli is a one-letter sermon. It&#8217;s the &#8220;my&#8221; of &#8220;my God&#8221; (El) in &nbsp; Matthew&#8217;s translation. That &#8220;my&#8221; speaks eloquent volumes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As Jesus shouts to his God from his cross, three hours of darkness, begun at Good Friday&#8217;s noon, come to an end. God-forsaken, Jesus endures those hours in the agony of hell. Understand &#8220;God-forsaken&#8221; and &#8220;hell&#8221; literally. Forget the flippant way that our culture treats such words. What Jesus goes through for half an afternoon of blackest night does not just &#8220;hurt like hell.&#8221; It is hell. His God withdraws his love. His Father is no longer well-pleased. Jesus stops being his beloved Son. Instead, &#8220;God [makes] him who had no sin to be sin&#8221; (2 Corinthians5:21). Jesus is now sin itself indeed, The Sinner himself. And God punishes sin, all sin, in Jesus with the full force of his anger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yet &#8220;My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?&#8221; is not a rhetorical question, asked only to underline this apparent injustice. Jesus really prays for an answer. In a way we cannot understand, the all-knowing Son of God and Son of Man really did not know why. That means worse suffering. The answer-the world&#8217;s salvation-would ease his torture. Yet amid that unfathomable pain of body and especially soul-he still calls upon &#8220;my God.&#8221; Even in his agony, Jesus remains faithful to his God as our brother and substitute. He trusts perfectly that God is just and will answer justly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You have that answer. You are not forsaken by God, because Jesus was forsaken for you. You are able to pray &#8220;my God,&#8221; because Jesus prayed it in your place. And his Spirit made you what God now calls you-&#8220;my child&#8221; in another one-letter sermon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Prayer:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jesus, my Savior, thank you for enduring the agony of hell so that I can know the joy of heaven. Amen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This devotion is selected from Marin Lutheran College\u2019s seasonal devotional series: We are thankful to Martin Luther College and the professors there for providing these devotions.
